Why I Love Magic....



Magic helps us all to find the child within. Remember when you were little and everything seemed magical? Christmas, Easter, your first to trip Disneyland and meeting Mickey Mouse? Disneyland is where magic first touched my life.

Magic helps me to reach out to others; to touch the lives of other children and adults and take them somewhere else— to a world of mystery and wonder.

My Auntie recently told my family a story about my 6 six year old cousin. Apparently she wanted to know how the Easter Bunny managed to go to everyone’s homes, hide the eggs and baskets, and do this all over the world before the children woke up in the morning?

Now apparently she knew how Santa did it— he does have reindeer after all, but bunnies have to rely on hopping from place to place. After her mom told her she really didn’t know how the Easter bunny managed it, my little cousin said, “That’s okay Mommie I’ll just ask Danielle. She’s magic just like Santa and the Easter bunny so she’ll know!”

Yes, to my six year old cousin I rank up there with Santa and the Easter Bunny— and one really wonders why I love magic so much?
